Best Xmas Ever... well just sit back and let me tell you the tale of a little boy who dreamt of superheros and powers. All i had ever wanted was to feel like i was in the comics right along side those heros i iconasized. One xmas my parents got me the Superman dies special edition box set with everything, the comic, the newspaper, and the memorial arm band. Not only was it hands down one of the best written and most touching stories ever but then i wore that arm band around for weeks and to this day i still have yet to feel that close to the comics i love. with that band on i felt that i was a superhero and was one of the select few who knew the trueth of superman.

When I still believed in Santa, and woke up extra early to open up presents.

It was back in '93 my family had just moved into a new house a few days before christmas and it was one of the first snowfalls that I could remeber.

Growing up, probably christmas 1992. My sibs and I had been clamoring for an SNES, but totally expected our parents not to get us one. christmas morning comes and we've opened all our gifts, except theres a big box in the corner (which we thought was for Mom). Our parents say "what about that box?" and we say "isn't that Moms?" "Nope" they reply. So we rush over, tear it open, and theres an SNES, with Zelda: ALTTP, the Super Scope, and I believe Mario Paint.
But my Wife is big into getting gifts that are surprises and memorable. Back when we were still dating, she got me the Bowen Moon Knight bust for Christmas. then I believe the next year it was the Colossus mini statue.

Christmas '86 (or '87) when I got a stereo that included my first cd player ever. I kinda spoiled it because I opened an AC/DC cd that was in one of those long boxes first (remember those?) so I knew what was coming. I've been constantly consuming music since.
They are all pretty similar. Maybe last year when my GFs parents got me this Patron pack. That was pretty awesome.

This Christmas will be, because it is going to be the first one I will spend with the love of my life!

It was when I was young in the 80's and all I wanted for Christmas was the Devastator box set. I wanted all six constructacons so I could form Devastator. My mom told me on Christmas eve she couldn't find it anywhere in the stores and not to be dissappointed Christmas morning. Well she lied to me. The box set was under the tree! Plus there were two dinobots too. I was so happy. I will never forget it. I think my mom lied to me so I could fall asleep on Christmas eve.

my best christmas was when i was like 5 or 6 and I got my giant Slave 1 toy with Boba and carbonite Han Solo. I also got the giant Super Human Samurai Cyber Squad mech thing (god i dont remember watching that show now that I think about it) but those were two of my favorite toys I wish I still had them :/

I was a child, I don't remember how old I was but I got an Andre the Giant and Jake the snake action figure! They were my favorites! I also think I got a nintendo but can't remember if that was the same year. Either way it kicked all sorts of ass

When I was around 5-7 years old. It was the last Christmas I remember with my mom, dad and brother. I remember my (older) brother waking me up around 3am saying that there were gifts under the tree. We woke our parents up asking if we could open gifts. It's funny, I don't remember what I got, but I know my brother got Lego sets and he let me help him put them together, him sharing was rare. It's a good memory.

Wow, what a hard one to answer. There we a lot of good ones, but one that really sticks out for me was when I was twelve and my family got a new puppy sheltie. It was also the last christmas I had with my grampa, rest his soul. Christmas is such a fun time of year though, I want to pick them all!

Too many good Christmas's to choose from, they are all great spending time with the ones you love.

I can't choose one! Spending time with the family is sick and especially when my Grandpa was alive. So probably the last Christmas I had with him was the best. Two Christmas' ago, I think.

Well I have so many but I will pick two.
When I was younger (maybe like 8) We all met at my Great Grandparents house and that year we had EVERYONE there. Not just the family that I saw everyday (because we all lived on the same block) but lots and lots of extended family were there... I just remember sitting on the stairs looking through the dining room into the Great big room on the other side and watching everyone talking... warm and fuzzing feelings just thinking about it! So many of them are gone now :( I miss that day!
Also the Christmas two years ago... Mike's birthday is Dec 26th (sucks huh) Well I bought him a PSP for X-mas then the next day I gave him an XBox 360 for his b-day... he was so happy :D That was fun for me!!! So those are my two favorite X-Mas days! So many more happy X-Mas memories though!!!
Hope you all have a beautiful Christmas this year and the years to come!

I'm going to go with last Christmas because they just seem to get better and better with the more mature my little sisters become. They are currently 17, 15, and 10 with me being 19. So yea, maturity definitely makes for a much more enjoyable Xmas for me.

Best christmas was when I was 15 when my dad shaved his mustache which he has had ever since I have been alive. I also got a ps2 and like 6 games for it.

The last christmas i had was the best. It was the first time that my whole family had been together for christmas in four years it was completely awesome.
2006. I went to Tennessee with my family. My dad was sick with Lung Cancer, and died the following May. That was the best Christmas ever.

Would have to be my first Christmas I can remember - 1983. I got from Santa an original Star Wars Rancor, Jabba the Hut set with Lea, and Luke Skywalker in jedi garb. It was the year Return of the Jedi was big in the box office. Man, I remember it like it was yesterday...cause we never got much as kids and this was really special cause I never really got to play with the cool toys.
Maybe that's why I'm so obsessed with Toys in my older years.... LOL!

Hmm, probably when I was 5 (or sometime around that age I can't remember). I remember how excited I was, because I got this desk I could draw my lil comics on.

probably around 1984-86, we had a HUGE starwars toy christmas, i can still remember being the first one up that morning and sneaking through the house and into the den... i nearly wept at the sight, it was beautiful... see our parents always made toy piles that were un-wraped, to keep us occupied till they got up and had coffee... so it was still dark, and the whole room was lit by the lights on the tree, blinking off all those shiney blister packs of action figures, and off boxes upon boxes of vehicles and playsets... man, takes me back. ;)
